Answers:
If you have this problem chronically you may have a persistent sinus infection which needs to be treated!. I this is just a cold, you may want to try over the counter meds such as something with sudafed in it!. Some common ones: Allegra D or Claritin D or the generic store brand equivalents!. These both come in 12 and 24 hour versions!. When I have a cold, I can't sleep if I can't breathe through my nose!. When that happens, I usually use a couple of sprays of Afrin 12 hour nasal spray in each nostril before laying down!. You shouldn't however use this more than 5 days!. Saline nasal spray can help as well!. Use the saline spray and then blow your nose really well!. But again, if this is a recurring or chronic problem, see your doctor or an ear, nose and throat specialist to be sure you don't have a chronic sinus infection that needs to be treated with antibiotics!. Hope you feel better and get some sleep!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Try a hot hot wash rage where the pressure is the worse whether it is above your eyes or under your eyes, you have two areas that are your sinuses on each side of your nose below your eyes and right above each eyebrow!. Also Dr!.OZ talked about a neddy pot on Oparh it works real good and the drug store has them and they will show you how to work them, this is long term relief if you continue use when just a little congested!. If it is a cold then you should get something for cold with a decongest in it!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Next time before this happens, purchase Saline Nasal Spray at the grocery or pharmacy!. Saline spray is great!. It works so well, it can get rid of a sinus infection in just a day or too!. Using eucalyptus oil in a pot of hot water helps!. Breathe the steam, but don't burn yourself!. You can also buy shower soothers to put in a warm shower and breathe those and it helps a lot!.

Just go to the store and get a jar of Vic's Vapor Rub and smear it all over your upper chest and neck area!. Be generous!. All you will have to do is wash your nightshirt afterwards!. The old fashioned cure still works 100%!. Don't doubt it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Go to the chemist and get some nose drops!.
I have some that work really well, they are called Spray-Tish, the menthol ones clear your nose up so you can breath in less that 5 min!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Eat something really really spicy!!! salsa, hotsauce, hot tamale's (candy)!. Normally that helps a lot when i'm congested!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
